Westie Education As a Club, we have a strong belief that Education is Key. Breeders must educate themselves constantly to establish and maintain high standards for breeding healthy, happy puppies. And consumers must also educate themselves to know what to look for in a puppy and where to find the puppy that will be a great addition to their home. With this in mind, we have an “Education” committee. That committee does what they can to educate the public. This includes attending various dog functions to hand out materials and talk to people about Westies. They also raise funds to finance the cost of ads in various newspapers to encourage people to research before they buy and to buy from responsible breeders. Another effort in education is our Education Website.
